💽 Disk Space

Disk Space shows how much room your VMs, templates and snapshots really use, and lets you grow or delete them. Open More → Tools → Disk Space (iPad: Tools → Disk Space).

Disk Space

Note: Requires the latest VirtualProg on your Mac. Older versions show a message instead.


📊 Overview

A card at the top shows the total used and a chart split into Virtual Machines, Checkpoints, Snapshots and Templates. On iPad it sits beside the list.

Below, three sections — Virtual Machines, Templates and Snapshots (grouped by VM) — list the biggest first. Tap one to expand its disks (used and configured size) and checkpoint layers. Bars turn red above 85%. A linked clone's inherited disks show Inherited from the parent and add nothing to the total.

Use ⇅ to sort by size or name, search to filter, and Refresh to reload.


↔️ Resize a Disk

Tap the resize button beside a disk, enter a larger size and tap Resize. Disks can only grow.

The button is available for VMs and templates, not snapshots. If a disk can't be resized right now, tapping it explains why:

Reason What to do
VM is running or suspended Stop it first
Linked clones depend on it Delete the clones first
It has checkpoints Delete the VM's checkpoints first
VM is locked Unlock it first

The sheet stays open to show the result: resized, or — if your Mac hasn't answered yet — a note to check back in a few minutes with a Check Again button. For a macOS Fixed disk you are offered to relocate the recovery partition afterwards.

Important: Resizing cannot be undone. A dynamic disk needs macOS 26 or later on the Mac.

🗑️ Delete

Use the … menu on a VM, template or snapshot to Delete it (with confirmation). Deleting a VM removes it and all its data permanently.

Operator tokens can view but not resize or delete.
